THURSDAY EVENING, DECEMBER. 15, 1842. Thf Prraldrnl Iflcwnjjr. Never was a President' Moiuage rcceivrd witli q oioru general feeling of indiffrrunce tind contempt, tlian the one which Ima jtiat been given to the Colin-try by Capt Tyler. In style, it sinks below the ordinary standard of the ctfbru of the newspaper presi. Puerile and meagre, it topic excite no sensation, and once read, from the hahitthe people h ive contracted of regarding the President's MuiMnge an important atfair, it is thrown asido and forgotten. Poor old John Tyler! in the second year of his administration, to he reduced to an estute so low and hufiiiliatinjr ! Next year, wo hand him over to Ihc false friends, the rour of whose cannon on the occa sion of the vetoes, was mistaken for the thunders of popular appliuse, and who will crown hun with the reward reserved for all traitors. The two principal features of the Message are the recommendations of the Exchequer, and the National, or Federal, Stop-Shop, for Nupplying clothing to seamen. For the former, in defiance of the Juck-sonian maxim, that "those who trade on borrowed capital ought to break," it is proposed to run the face of the Republic fur live or ten millions ol dollars, hut for tho public clothing establishment the moderate sum of 8100000 only is wanted. The plan of this hist is supposed to have been suggested by old Noah of New York, whoso nationil genius tends to commerce in that particular commodity. Noih is hanging about Washington to obtain nil office, and if Congress will eatiblih a great mammoth M Slop-Simp " it is supposed he will be provided for. A- to tho Exchequer, we do not hear that any body in Congress has come out in its favor m yet. If it were ever so feusible, and promised ever so much advantage to tho country, no prudent or reflecting man could think of putting it into operation under such a dynasty as ibis, under whose auspices the worst men in tin) community are advanced to the highest places. On this subject of appointments to office, the New York Express draws a melancholy picture, which is unfortunately true to the letter in its most revolting aspects, and which we adopt u As tilings havo been," says that paper, " tho abandoned ' and oil-casts of both parties h ive hern creeping in-to place. Tho high minded Loco Fuco, and the independent Whig, tho important and powerful of 'both parties, could not condescend to ask ruroflico 'in tho modes and manner in which so manyinis-T-'ablns have sneaked into post. Tho President may 'not he aware of it, but it U a solemn fact, that his 'appointments f lr the hundrod days pat, hive with 'a few exception, been of tho lowest character. Whatever scoundrel there was so degraded by his ' folly or rascality at home, that he could not cam his 'bread, such has flown to Washington with the bo-' lief that there was a field there fr him. Turn-'coaU, hypocrites, office-beggars, hopeless under all ' administrations hitherto, have had renewed life now. The ambition of the President has been swindled 'into lavishing places Mon men so mean they could 'not pay fur a place with hardly their own vole, to 'any nothing of their preposterous folly, in assuming 'to influence others. His good nature has been tri-'fled with; his credulity imposed upon; his igtio-' ranee of our localities and peculiarities taken ad- vantage of. Whatever good quality he h is, has been turned to a bad account by interested yco- 'phanis, and whatever bad quality, his been mado 1 worse. If the film could but drop from lus eyes : if tho hungry, haggard, ghastly and ghostly crew could hut stand Mitre him as they are, pitiable, sel- ThIi, contemptible, ho would shrink back from tho 'socctacle as from an anatomical gallery uf dead men's bones, strung with artificial sinews." To whom would be entrusted the duty of organizing and carrying out the scheme of the Kxclnquer, if such a thing was possible as that it should be es tablished by law ? Look at the materials of the ry ler party in this State: at your .Millers and Madiera your Gen. Murphies and Mai Gilberts jmir Col, Joe (irahams and Delaton Smiths your Mtillutt'iiu an I McLains the whole brood of whom are notoriously without character, respectability or standing in any party or community without the public confidence, and only attached to the Tyler faction because it has now and then a bone to fling to Uie hungry crow who profess tu wear its livery ! Now who would be willing to trust apart from all other considerationsthe regulation and control of our whole monetary system to such a set of sycophants and ig-norammes as theso ' How long would the capitul of the Government flank last, under tho management of such a band of financiers ? About as long as a hoar fro-! under a July sun ! No, no! Away with tho Exchequer, or any other plan for extending the power and patronage of the government under such an i.nbecilo and corrupt ad-ministration as we arc now cursed withal. 1'p"" its intrinsic merits, llio measure will not stand a mo-ment's exuninalion, hut wh .n wo cmnu to superadd Ihn considerations relative to the responsibilities of tho men who arc to have it in charge, we mu4 pray to bo delivered from tho tremendous danger which would fhroalen our whole system of government, if such a machine as this should stand the ililiiijjt chance of success. lr. K. II. Oldi, The facetious editor of the O. H. Republican aaya we have tried to ridicule Dr. Olds,(he talented member from Pickaway" because he is "tiioini to entertain conservative vines." We know nothing about Dr. O's "conservative views," but wo wish the O. S. R, to understand that we have a mode of treating peoplo according to their own serum of decency and propriety. It Dr. O. or any other member ot lhoronot Bl)mr that monstrous scheme of Latham Legislature, w ishes to be used with rec pect and cour tesy, ho must detnrt himself with dignity and observe in his intercourse with our friends, at least, the rules of good breeding and coud'y. )r. O's remarks, which were repined in the Journal of H iturday. tit-trail f t wore out of order, rude and disrespectful to tho House as well as to iho member whom he unt-tempted" to ridicule. Hut his wit was without point, and the tVhViotu who laughed, laughed at him, not the object of his impotent nnd stalo jest. Wo ad vise him lo he be more circumspect in future, and if ho is ambitious of acting 1 prominent part, lo do bo in a way to subserve the public good. Hut the O, S. H. represents lr. Olds as entertaining "conwrvativo views," and therefore wo are left to infer ho is entitled to our patronage, as well as forbearance when ho does a silly thing. With what measure of conservatism is Dr. O, imbued? Perhaps wo shall be told that he is more of a Hank man than Mr. MeNulty, and that having been elected as on opponent of Hanks, he has coma to the legislature to vote for establishing Hanks. We knew ho was more of a Bank man than Mr. MeNulty, becauso we now hold l dirty shin plaster issued hy him upon a false pledge of M real estate" to secure its redemption, from which it might bo reasonably inferred lhal he was eminently conservative in his view. Now we wish the Old School Republican to know that wo want no connexion with inch kind of bank men, and that no such man need look lo us for any secret oropnn support of himself or hit principles. The O. S, H. seems to think, that Hanking is tho be-all ani end-all of Whiggery, and that provided we could sue coed in creating a new brood of Hanks, we hall bo roady strike hands with tho faff ends and cum of Loco Focoism. There is a mistake in this we apprehend. We tre in favor of safe and sound banking, as our commitments on Out subject will abundantly testify, but neither do wo, nor the Whigs, as we are advised, feel tho slightest disposition to purchase a banking system at the cxjwnso of the honor and real interests of the Hlate. So far as we can comprehend Dr. O. lie is vastly too "conservative" for us we wish ho were less so. "Real Estate pledged," is no go. And the last thing that may be locked for at our hands, is that we shall wink at the Sillies or foibles of any Loco Foco Federal member of this Legislature, because he claims to be a little more conservative than his fellows. No man who harbors in the Tin Pan, and can vote for such mere creation as Bill Allen and Ham Medary, will be exempted from our lash, when they have merited its application. Thu 1'nblic lfslrMi. The depreciation of the value of property and tho scarcity of a circulating medium, continues to be attested by circumstances which come under our observation almost daily. Tho Western (Dayton) Empire says that well saved hay bus been sold for o dollar'aton, ut Constable's sale, and excellent cows for three dollars a pkee. At another constable's sale five huwlred bushels of corn in the ear were sold for thru t(ollars! and eighty acres of wheat well put in for tho same sum ! The McConnellsville Standard says that during the late session of the Court of Common Pleas in Morgan Co., judgments have been rendered to the amount of $10,000. At the preceding term the amount was over 920,0001 Formerly, it was rarely known to exceed ten or twelve thousand dollars. All these things are tho legitimate fruits of tho destruction of the Currency effected under tho specious pretext of "Bank Reform." From the beginning, tho Whig purty have protested against the course of policy which has plunged the State into theso embarrassments, and foreseen the results. Yet the people would not bo warned in time. Even now, in tho midst of unparalleled distresses, ruin and stagnation, the authors of our accumulated misfor tunes and calamities, nave just ueen triumphantly sustained hy the people. On S iturday, Wilson Shan non, tho Bank Reformer and Destructive, was declared elected to tho office of Governor of tho State for two years, and in two days a Grand Ball, conducted by tillecn or twenty LAWYERS is to celebrate an event, which is to gun runty the continuance of the measures from which these miseries are flowing. Hut tho Slate Printer pockets his sixteen thousand dollars a year, which will buy forty thousand bush els of w heat, and he can from his sanctum cooly issue the mandates to his Charlies in (he Legislature, which arc to augment and protract these difficulties, if indeed they are not made perpetual. Whilst tho whole communiiy nre writhing under the inflictions of his accursed policy, he will not abate one jot of tho hold ho has on tho public treasury, ns may bo seen from tho vote of the majority in the Senate, against reducing the expenses of tho public printing, in a single item, which admits of economy without the slightest prejudice to the public interest. What cares lie for tho "woes that others feel," so long as his own demands ore luvishly supplied from the public tieasury! A f'nrd. Tho Eoitor of this paper begs to return his un feigned acknowledgments to tho Wiiio members of the Legislature fir the flattering mark of their confidence, bestowed upon him yesterday, in tho election of Slate Printer. Regarding it chiefly as an expression of their approbation for the manner in which he has endeavored to perform the duties of his place, it will he received with as grateful feelings ai though it conferred all the pecuniary advantages which fall to the lot of his more fortunate competitor; and will besides serve as a stimulus to greator exertions in that cause which can alone restore tho country to its former prosperity and happiness, Vmrk mf the KartNlienrr. The axe of the fell traitor who fills the office of the National Executive, is kept in continual use, and every day's mail brings us accounts of frotdi martyrdoms. Wo have not made it a point to keep a register of the victims, hut an occasional example of proscription stands out in bolder relief than ordinary, and calls for especial reprobation. Of this class is the following: UiFiRn.i t'.i.r.n OiiTnor.

If it were otherwise, it is not certain that he would bo discoursing in the following style. From tlw Knlido Vrnliirr, "Comi'ROMimnq pni.NciPi.Es." We find the following editorial paragraph in a h'o number of fho fMm Patriot : "Certain Democratic papers exhibit a very great uneasiness lest the Derwcratic members of the next legislature will not sufficiently compromise their currency principles. It is a remarkable fact, and one well worthy of note, that these papers are nearly, if not quite all published in counties in which tho Whiff have carried their Representatives. It occurs to us, that the Democratic editors are assuming to themselvrs the duty of their Whig representatives. Doubtless the Whig members will sufficiently guard the interests of tho ihnks without nssistnnco from the Democratic pres. "Soft money " editors may become jealous of our "hard money1 Democrats, if they commence a war in advance upon our next Legislature."A pointed and just rebuke j although there are circumstances connected w ith its source, that materially blunt its force. W here is the democrat, old friend, who, within a twelvemonth, has rendered himself , nmmi'P(1 nit principles" than your own srif? Did that iniquitous act of cession wnirli w as tie-signed to circumvent the dnnocracy of Ohio, and tninfi'r them into the insatiable maw of the liankinfr poirr, to pass without rebuke nnd without protest? With what grace, then, can oini complain, after having pirn Vour tacit, if not expressed, approval, of that foul abortion for the "regulation" of sWlVr, if the next legislature go on, chartering and to chtr-ter. until the Inst hope for a deliverance from the nc- ! ruined thrall of Bank dominion, is forever postponed?

Nome of iho pood pilots in thr tleel are complelelj befogged and aeem to have Inst their pole star mli somn of our vessels have actually found shel ter under the battlements of the enemy. Tho truth is. Iatium s bank bill was designed by its especial ami-fathers to bring annul a political millenium an amslminatinn of parties an "era uf pood feeling" with the understanding, however, that the people should (henceforward surrender all political power into Iho custody and sell -keeping of the Ifanks. It was a ftdtrat measure, which was born and nursed amid tho agonirittg throes of the expiring power of thr Hankers. vp repeat and wo nre not, he it understood, sneaking at random it was emphatically rr federal measure ; and one, too, of the most se ductive, dangerous and nainnaulo character. It forced the democratic party bark on to the identical platform where public opinion had previously forced the whips and at this present w riting, banlt democrats and bank federalist aru engnged, on common (rround, in 1 very interesting sham fight, ahont "trifles, light as air,'-whirh they have got up for the especial edification of tints and gudgeons.

Resolved, That the location of men in every region of the earth, subject to tho influence of every climate, cngagctl in every variety of pursuit, and estranged by a great diversity of language ana manners, their division into scanite communities, under separate governments, is unavoidable. IUsolvea That being thus circumstanced, it is the duty of every government to provide for the wants and protect tho interests of the nation or community over which it is established. Hcsolvtd, That since the general diffusion of civilization, war and rapine, as means of national power and aimovanne havini? in a irroat mea-urc yielded to the more humane but equally efficient system of adverse legislation, it is therefore no less the duty of all governments to protect their citizens against trie latter than the former. Htsotved. That while the commercial regulations of every nation of the civilized world, are made up of restrictions, high tariffs, and navigation laws, it is an insult to the understanding of the American people to urge upon thern the phantom of free trade. Itesolvtd, That in view of these truths, we hold that no intelligent man can be regarded as a Statesman or Patriot w ho would advise the adoption of a system of free trade on our part, whilst our commerce is burdened with high duties und restrictions in all parts of the world. Resolved, That nations, like families, are most independent when they produce within themselves every thing necessary for their comfort, convenience, and safety. HvAolvfA, That the best evidence of a faithful administration of government, is to ho found in the condition of the people over which it boars sway. wneru mo riL'titeous irovorn, toe people prosper aim rejoice; but where tho wicked rule, tho peoplo are poor, and mourn.

The acting Governor of Virginia, John M. Gregory, in his recent Message to the Legislature touches upon the subject of the dilliculties between the free ami slave-holding Siaict, in referring to a Law of lite Stale. " to prevent die citizens of New York from carrying off slave of the Commonwealth," and adds : " Unless something speedily be done by the grest body of our Northern brethren lo arresl the mischievous designs of the fanatics,(ihe Abolitionists) it will become a question lor the whole &ulh to consider whether they will continue longer in union with a people who are resorting lo evtry art and device they eon to rob them of thoir property," We cannot say we believe this gasconade amounts lo any thing very serious. Before the Boiilh secedes, ibey will make anothur estimate of the value of the union lo tliem. Th-y will reflect, that a separation from the North, and the esiab-litdiinenl of a rival confederacy, will by no moans operate lo secure lo them greater advantages in the protection of slave property Uian they now enjoy. A ltd Id them bear in deep remembrance iho prophetic admonition of Mr. Underwood, of Kentucky, uttered iu Congress hut year, that " A DISSOLUTION OF THE UNION WAS THE DISSOLUTION OF SLAVKItV " Before the South complains of a want of good faith, on the part of ihe North, it must recede from the untenable ground which it occupies itself- Kestoie tu us the right of ctitiun, and give us that protection to Northern industry, whirh is so essential to our prosperity, and then you may with a greater show of reason demand those compliances with ihe letter of die national charter which conflicts so palpably with in spirit.

The constantly increasing strength of the German vote at the polls, renders it indispensable to the future success of tho Whig party in this State, that we should havo the meani of addressing tint portion of our population, in explanation and defence of our principle, in their own language. They have been too much neglected already. The Germans are an honest, industrious peoplo frugal iu their habits, disposed to livo within their means, and ambitious of accumulating property and bettering their condition. They come to this country preQ disposed in favor of Whig measures, All Germany, at the present day, is united in a "Home Lcaguo " Zott Verein against the Manufactures of England, and in favor of tho policy of domestic indus try. To ophsc a Tariff in this country, they aro taught to renounce their most cherished sentiments in the Father land. The unscrupulous efforts of our native born" demagogues, have been too successful in prejudicing their minds against Iho objects of the Whig party, but it is not an insurmountable labor to enlighten their minds, and set them on the ground thoy would naturally wish to occupy. Propositions have been often mado tn establish a German Whig paper in this city, but Cincinnati possesses superior advantages, for the attainment of the desired object The resident German population of Cincinnati is large and rapidly increasing;, and such a piper can nbtuin a better spontaneous support, and exert a stronger influence there, than at any other point Efforts should bo made by our Whig friends to extend the circulation of the " Republican," and pioue it Uoii a permanent footing. The Germans should be urged to subscribe for it and Whigs themselves should subscribe for and circulate it gratuitously, A small amount of money laid out in that way, can do much good. It is in our power thus to gain the suport of the majority of our German citizens, and surely with thu results of our late elections before us, we cannot be insensible tn the importance of employing means so unexceptionable as tint of diffusing correct information, to turn the tide of victory in our fuvor ' The "German Republican" is published at $2 per year, weekly. It has reached its 10th number, and only wants the aid the Whigs can easily givo it to be made an elucicnt instrument in the redemp tion of the State. Frrlgn nmlhlf MngnsiMe for DrermWr.

If the extension was granted, and the fund arising from school lands withheld, tho deficiency would nave to ba supplied by a sale of Stato bonds, and he waa opposed lo making any s.icnflco on such sales.

Mr. Hartley opposed Ihe instructions. He wished some more decisive action on the subject He was in favor of an immediate settlement of the currency question, wnicn no thought might vet tie effected be- fore the first of January. He thought loo, that tlie psssatro 01 tms Dill, winch extends the corporate existence of Banks without the power of issuing, would convert Ihein into shavine: shone. Mr. Nosh contended that Una bill should pass. If It did not the whole Business or the expiring Banks would be deranged and Ihrown into confusion 1 tho assets of the Banks would be placed in tho hands of receivers, tne consequencos ol which would be a depreciation of their paier in the hands of the people, and an entire arrest of the circulation of tho whole amount as money. Mr. Hartley inaistnd that the act of last winter providing for the closing up of the concerns of ex . piring Bunks was sufficient for all tlie mimwea con- I tcmpTated by tho present bill, with the oxcrptlon of prolonging tne corporate existence ot banks.

Mr. M'Clung, from Uie committee on the Peniten tiary, reported back the resolution for the appointment of a commissioner to examine into the management of the Penitentiary, and the conduct of Wm. 11. van Hook, recommending its passage. Mr. llowen was not aware that any meeting ol tho committee had been held, but u a member of it ho should differ from the majority in reference to the resolution, mere wu no question but an investigation wu necessary, but he thought it could u well be made by a committee of the Legislature u by individuals out of it It wu a new thing in legislation to appoint persons who were not members nf the General Assembly to make examinations of tho kind proposed, and he thought such a course would materially increue Uie expense of an investigation. He moved to amend tlie resolution by striking out the names of David Tod, Allen Trimble and E. . Haines, snd insert members on the part of the Senate, and three members on the part of thu House, lo constitute Uie committee. Mr. Mcrarland desired that individuals should bit appointed, Uie result of whose investigations woul.I be satisfactory. They should be competent to decidis on the propriety of admitting certain testimony, and the inducements which operated on Uie minds uf per-sons testifying. He considered that tlie committee should be made up of legal gentlemen, and that their characters should be such, that if Mr, Van Hook is found to be not guilty of committing frauds, their decision shall be final and decisive. The expenso nf the examination proposed, would not probably bu moro than $50 more than an examination by a cum-miltee of the House, but what wu tlie mere matter of $1100 or l.r0 to a final decision of the matter, both as regards the public interest and the character of tho individual implicated. Mr. Bowen thought legal genUcmcn could be found in the Legislature abundantly competent lo mako tins investigation men whose characters were abovu suspicion, and whose decision would be as satisfactory u that of any ono out uf it Mr. Chaney, (Mr. Chambers in Uie chair, was iii favor of an examination by a committee of the House. lie thought it unnecessary to extend it any farther than to an investigation of Uie charges nude against Mr. Van Hook. The previous management of tho prison he thought should be let alone. Mr. Prohssco wu in favor ol the amendment l.a wu opposed to appointing individuals out of the Legislature to make investigations. Such a course had been pursued heretofore only in one instsnce this case of tho contested election between Wright and Holmes, and in that case there were sufficient reasons for it If the examination wu to be a long an I tedious one, a committee ot the House could inaku it with less expense. A deviation from past praclico could result in no good. 1 he amendment waa supported fsrther by Messrs. Humphreys, Chaney and Bowen, and opposed by Mr. McFarland, when the amendment wu agreed to. Mr. McINulty moved to recommit the resolution to the committee on the Penitentiary, with instructions so to amend it u to provide for an examination of tlie books and accounts of the Wardens of the Penitentiary from the time of the erection of ue near prison. 1 he motion was decided out or order. Mr. Probasco wu in favor of the investigation pro posed by the gentleman from Knox.

Mr. M'Nulty reported back the resolution, in ref erence to depreciated paper money received into the Treasury, with amendments, which were agreed to, and the resolution adopted.

On motion of Mr. King, a joint resolution was adopted fnr a meeting of tlie two Houses at 3 o'clock, on Saturday, tlie 17th insl. for Uie purpose of elect ing one r resident Judge lor the 7th Judicial Circuit Several bills were considered in committee of the whole, reported bsck, and recommitted. The House took a recess. 3 o'doc, s. M The House took up the resolution relative to an investigation into the transactions of the Board of Fund Commissioners, and the question being on agreeing to an amendment providing for Uie appointment of a committee of three members of the House to moke Uie investigation, Mr. Olds said he hoped Uie amendment would not prevail. It wu impossible for a committee of the House to make the proposed investigation, without occupying the whnle luno of the session. If an investigation wu to be made, it should be a thorough one. He knew of no transactions of the Board for any one period, that wu fully understood. There might be nothing wrong or unfair in their doings, but it waa possible Uiat every thing wu not perfectly fair, and in regard to which Uie people should be inform, ed. The Legislature might have to appoint a near Board, and he presumed that no man could be induced to serve in it, unless an investigation wu made into the transactions of Ihe old one, and the question would be, whether a committee of the House could satisfy those who would constitute the new Board, that they were safe in assuming the responsibility. - Tho amendment wu then agreed to. Another amendment wu adopted, allowing the committee to extend Uie investigation u far back aa they shall deem expedient The resolution, as amended, wu then agreed to. The following bills having passed through com. miltee of Uie w hole, were ordered to be engrossed i A bill making temporary appropriations, A bill to amend Uie act incorporating Uie town of Chillicothe. Mr. Byington introduced a bill authorizing and requiring the Auditor of State to issue his warrant on Uie Treasurer, for Uie full payment of Uie Stats subscription lo the slock of Uie Portsmouth and Columbus Turnpike company, which wu read the first time.

THURSDAY EVENING, DECEMBER. 15, 1842. Thf Prraldrnl Iflcwnjjr. Never was a President' Moiuage rcceivrd witli q oioru general feeling of indiffrrunce tind contempt, tlian the one which Ima jtiat been given to the Colin-try by Capt Tyler. In style, it sinks below the ordinary standard of the ctfbru of the newspaper presi. Puerile and meagre, it topic excite no sensation, and once read, from the hahitthe people h ive contracted of regarding the President's MuiMnge an important atfair, it is thrown asido and forgotten. Poor old John Tyler! in the second year of his administration, to he reduced to an estute so low and hufiiiliatinjr ! Next year, wo hand him over to Ihc false friends, the rour of whose cannon on the occa sion of the vetoes, was mistaken for the thunders of popular appliuse, and who will crown hun with the reward reserved for all traitors. The two principal features of the Message are the recommendations of the Exchequer, and the National, or Federal, Stop-Shop, for Nupplying clothing to seamen. For the former, in defiance of the Juck-sonian maxim, that "those who trade on borrowed capital ought to break," it is proposed to run the face of the Republic fur live or ten millions ol dollars, hut for tho public clothing establishment the moderate sum of 8100000 only is wanted. The plan of this hist is supposed to have been suggested by old Noah of New York, whoso nationil genius tends to commerce in that particular commodity. Noih is hanging about Washington to obtain nil office, and if Congress will eatiblih a great mammoth M Slop-Simp " it is supposed he will be provided for. A- to tho Exchequer, we do not hear that any body in Congress has come out in its favor m yet. If it were ever so feusible, and promised ever so much advantage to tho country, no prudent or reflecting man could think of putting it into operation under such a dynasty as ibis, under whose auspices the worst men in tin) community are advanced to the highest places. On this subject of appointments to office, the New York Express draws a melancholy picture, which is unfortunately true to the letter in its most revolting aspects, and which we adopt u As tilings havo been," says that paper, " tho abandoned ' and oil-casts of both parties h ive hern creeping in-to place. Tho high minded Loco Fuco, and the independent Whig, tho important and powerful of 'both parties, could not condescend to ask ruroflico 'in tho modes and manner in which so manyinis-T-'ablns have sneaked into post. Tho President may 'not he aware of it, but it U a solemn fact, that his 'appointments f lr the hundrod days pat, hive with 'a few exception, been of tho lowest character. Whatever scoundrel there was so degraded by his ' folly or rascality at home, that he could not cam his 'bread, such has flown to Washington with the bo-' lief that there was a field there fr him. Turn-'coaU, hypocrites, office-beggars, hopeless under all ' administrations hitherto, have had renewed life now. The ambition of the President has been swindled 'into lavishing places Mon men so mean they could 'not pay fur a place with hardly their own vole, to 'any nothing of their preposterous folly, in assuming 'to influence others. His good nature has been tri-'fled with; his credulity imposed upon; his igtio-' ranee of our localities and peculiarities taken ad- vantage of. Whatever good quality he h is, has been turned to a bad account by interested yco- 'phanis, and whatever bad quality, his been mado 1 worse. If the film could but drop from lus eyes : if tho hungry, haggard, ghastly and ghostly crew could hut stand Mitre him as they are, pitiable, sel- ThIi, contemptible, ho would shrink back from tho 'socctacle as from an anatomical gallery uf dead men's bones, strung with artificial sinews." To whom would be entrusted the duty of organizing and carrying out the scheme of the Kxclnquer, if such a thing was possible as that it should be es tablished by law ? Look at the materials of the ry ler party in this State: at your .Millers and Madiera your Gen. Murphies and Mai Gilberts jmir Col, Joe (irahams and Delaton Smiths your Mtillutt'iiu an I McLains the whole brood of whom are notoriously without character, respectability or standing in any party or community without the public confidence, and only attached to the Tyler faction because it has now and then a bone to fling to Uie hungry crow who profess tu wear its livery ! Now who would be willing to trust apart from all other considerationsthe regulation and control of our whole monetary system to such a set of sycophants and ig-norammes as theso ' How long would the capitul of the Government flank last, under tho management of such a band of financiers ? About as long as a hoar fro-! under a July sun ! No, no! Away with tho Exchequer, or any other plan for extending the power and patronage of the government under such an i.nbecilo and corrupt ad-ministration as we arc now cursed withal. 1'p"" its intrinsic merits, llio measure will not stand a mo-ment's exuninalion, hut wh .n wo cmnu to superadd Ihn considerations relative to the responsibilities of tho men who arc to have it in charge, we mu4 pray to bo delivered from tho tremendous danger which would fhroalen our whole system of government, if such a machine as this should stand the ililiiijjt chance of success. lr. K. II. Oldi, The facetious editor of the O. H. Republican aaya we have tried to ridicule Dr. Olds,(he talented member from Pickaway" because he is "tiioini to entertain conservative vines." We know nothing about Dr. O's "conservative views," but wo wish the O. S. R, to understand that we have a mode of treating peoplo according to their own serum of decency and propriety. It Dr. O. or any other member ot lhoronot Bl)mr that monstrous scheme of Latham Legislature, w ishes to be used with rec pect and cour tesy, ho must detnrt himself with dignity and observe in his intercourse with our friends, at least, the rules of good breeding and coud'y. )r. O's remarks, which were repined in the Journal of H iturday. tit-trail f t wore out of order, rude and disrespectful to tho House as well as to iho member whom he unt-tempted" to ridicule. Hut his wit was without point, and the tVhViotu who laughed, laughed at him, not the object of his impotent nnd stalo jest. Wo ad vise him lo he be more circumspect in future, and if ho is ambitious of acting 1 prominent part, lo do bo in a way to subserve the public good. Hut the O, S. H. represents lr. Olds as entertaining "conwrvativo views," and therefore wo are left to infer ho is entitled to our patronage, as well as forbearance when ho does a silly thing. With what measure of conservatism is Dr. O, imbued? Perhaps wo shall be told that he is more of a Hank man than Mr. MeNulty, and that having been elected as on opponent of Hanks, he has coma to the legislature to vote for establishing Hanks. We knew ho was more of a Bank man than Mr. MeNulty, becauso we now hold l dirty shin plaster issued hy him upon a false pledge of M real estate" to secure its redemption, from which it might bo reasonably inferred lhal he was eminently conservative in his view. Now we wish the Old School Republican to know that wo want no connexion with inch kind of bank men, and that no such man need look lo us for any secret oropnn support of himself or hit principles. The O. S, H. seems to think, that Hanking is tho be-all ani end-all of Whiggery, and that provided we could sue coed in creating a new brood of Hanks, we hall bo roady strike hands with tho faff ends and cum of Loco Focoism. There is a mistake in this we apprehend. We tre in favor of safe and sound banking, as our commitments on Out subject will abundantly testify, but neither do wo, nor the Whigs, as we are advised, feel tho slightest disposition to purchase a banking system at the cxjwnso of the honor and real interests of the Hlate. So far as we can comprehend Dr. O. lie is vastly too "conservative" for us we wish ho were less so. "Real Estate pledged," is no go. And the last thing that may be locked for at our hands, is that we shall wink at the Sillies or foibles of any Loco Foco Federal member of this Legislature, because he claims to be a little more conservative than his fellows. No man who harbors in the Tin Pan, and can vote for such mere creation as Bill Allen and Ham Medary, will be exempted from our lash, when they have merited its application. Thu 1'nblic lfslrMi. The depreciation of the value of property and tho scarcity of a circulating medium, continues to be attested by circumstances which come under our observation almost daily. Tho Western (Dayton) Empire says that well saved hay bus been sold for o dollar'aton, ut Constable's sale, and excellent cows for three dollars a pkee. At another constable's sale five huwlred bushels of corn in the ear were sold for thru t(ollars! and eighty acres of wheat well put in for tho same sum ! The McConnellsville Standard says that during the late session of the Court of Common Pleas in Morgan Co., judgments have been rendered to the amount of $10,000. At the preceding term the amount was over 920,0001 Formerly, it was rarely known to exceed ten or twelve thousand dollars. All these things are tho legitimate fruits of tho destruction of the Currency effected under tho specious pretext of "Bank Reform." From the beginning, tho Whig purty have protested against the course of policy which has plunged the State into theso embarrassments, and foreseen the results. Yet the people would not bo warned in time. Even now, in tho midst of unparalleled distresses, ruin and stagnation, the authors of our accumulated misfor tunes and calamities, nave just ueen triumphantly sustained hy the people. On S iturday, Wilson Shan non, tho Bank Reformer and Destructive, was declared elected to tho office of Governor of tho State for two years, and in two days a Grand Ball, conducted by tillecn or twenty LAWYERS is to celebrate an event, which is to gun runty the continuance of the measures from which these miseries are flowing. Hut tho Slate Printer pockets his sixteen thousand dollars a year, which will buy forty thousand bush els of w heat, and he can from his sanctum cooly issue the mandates to his Charlies in (he Legislature, which arc to augment and protract these difficulties, if indeed they are not made perpetual. Whilst tho whole communiiy nre writhing under the inflictions of his accursed policy, he will not abate one jot of tho hold ho has on tho public treasury, ns may bo seen from tho vote of the majority in the Senate, against reducing the expenses of tho public printing, in a single item, which admits of economy without the slightest prejudice to the public interest. What cares lie for tho "woes that others feel," so long as his own demands ore luvishly supplied from the public tieasury! A f'nrd. Tho Eoitor of this paper begs to return his un feigned acknowledgments to tho Wiiio members of the Legislature fir the flattering mark of their confidence, bestowed upon him yesterday, in tho election of Slate Printer. Regarding it chiefly as an expression of their approbation for the manner in which he has endeavored to perform the duties of his place, it will he received with as grateful feelings ai though it conferred all the pecuniary advantages which fall to the lot of his more fortunate competitor; and will besides serve as a stimulus to greator exertions in that cause which can alone restore tho country to its former prosperity and happiness, Vmrk mf the KartNlienrr. The axe of the fell traitor who fills the office of the National Executive, is kept in continual use, and every day's mail brings us accounts of frotdi martyrdoms. Wo have not made it a point to keep a register of the victims, hut an occasional example of proscription stands out in bolder relief than ordinary, and calls for especial reprobation. Of this class is the following: UiFiRn.i t'.i.r.n OiiTnor.

If it were otherwise, it is not certain that he would bo discoursing in the following style. From tlw Knlido Vrnliirr, "Comi'ROMimnq pni.NciPi.Es." We find the following editorial paragraph in a h'o number of fho fMm Patriot : "Certain Democratic papers exhibit a very great uneasiness lest the Derwcratic members of the next legislature will not sufficiently compromise their currency principles. It is a remarkable fact, and one well worthy of note, that these papers are nearly, if not quite all published in counties in which tho Whiff have carried their Representatives. It occurs to us, that the Democratic editors are assuming to themselvrs the duty of their Whig representatives. Doubtless the Whig members will sufficiently guard the interests of tho ihnks without nssistnnco from the Democratic pres. "Soft money " editors may become jealous of our "hard money1 Democrats, if they commence a war in advance upon our next Legislature."A pointed and just rebuke j although there are circumstances connected w ith its source, that materially blunt its force. W here is the democrat, old friend, who, within a twelvemonth, has rendered himself , nmmi'P(1 nit principles" than your own srif? Did that iniquitous act of cession wnirli w as tie-signed to circumvent the dnnocracy of Ohio, and tninfi'r them into the insatiable maw of the liankinfr poirr, to pass without rebuke nnd without protest? With what grace, then, can oini complain, after having pirn Vour tacit, if not expressed, approval, of that foul abortion for the "regulation" of sWlVr, if the next legislature go on, chartering and to chtr-ter. until the Inst hope for a deliverance from the nc- ! ruined thrall of Bank dominion, is forever postponed?

It was a ftdtrat measure, which was born and nursed amid tho agonirittg throes of the expiring power of thr Hankers. vp repeat and wo nre not, he it understood, sneaking at random it was emphatically rr federal measure ; and one, too, of the most se ductive, dangerous and nainnaulo character. It forced the democratic party bark on to the identical platform where public opinion had previously forced the whips and at this present w riting, banlt democrats and bank federalist aru engnged, on common (rround, in 1 very interesting sham fight, ahont "trifles, light as air,'-whirh they have got up for the especial edification of tints and gudgeons.

IUsolvea That being thus circumstanced, it is the duty of every government to provide for the wants and protect tho interests of the nation or community over which it is established. Hcsolvtd, That since the general diffusion of civilization, war and rapine, as means of national power and aimovanne havini? in a irroat mea-urc yielded to the more humane but equally efficient system of adverse legislation, it is therefore no less the duty of all governments to protect their citizens against trie latter than the former. Htsotved. That while the commercial regulations of every nation of the civilized world, are made up of restrictions, high tariffs, and navigation laws, it is an insult to the understanding of the American people to urge upon thern the phantom of free trade. Itesolvtd, That in view of these truths, we hold that no intelligent man can be regarded as a Statesman or Patriot w ho would advise the adoption of a system of free trade on our part, whilst our commerce is burdened with high duties und restrictions in all parts of the world. Resolved, That nations, like families, are most independent when they produce within themselves every thing necessary for their comfort, convenience, and safety.

" to prevent die citizens of New York from carrying off slave of the Commonwealth," and adds : " Unless something speedily be done by the grest body of our Northern brethren lo arresl the mischievous designs of the fanatics,(ihe Abolitionists) it will become a question lor the whole &ulh to consider whether they will continue longer in union with a people who are resorting lo evtry art and device they eon to rob them of thoir property," We cannot say we believe this gasconade amounts lo any thing very serious.

Th-y will reflect, that a separation from the North, and the esiab-litdiinenl of a rival confederacy, will by no moans operate lo secure lo them greater advantages in the protection of slave property Uian they now enjoy. A ltd Id them bear in deep remembrance iho prophetic admonition of Mr. Underwood, of Kentucky, uttered iu Congress hut year, that " A DISSOLUTION OF THE UNION WAS THE DISSOLUTION OF SLAVKItV " Before the South complains of a want of good faith, on the part of ihe North, it must recede from the untenable ground which it occupies itself- Kestoie tu us the right of ctitiun, and give us that protection to Northern industry, whirh is so essential to our prosperity, and then you may with a greater show of reason demand those compliances with ihe letter of die national charter which conflicts so palpably with in spirit. Gtawinn Whig Paper. uDer Deutsche Repuhlicancr or German Republican is tho title of a Whig; paper published in the German language, daily and weekly, at Cincinnati, hy J. H. Srhroeder. It is got up in very handsome style, is of fair size and neatly printed. The imt.Hr-tance of having a good German Whiff piper in this State, has oft -n been the subject of remark among our friends. The constantly increasing strength of the German vote at the polls, renders it indispensable to the future success of tho Whig party in this State, that we should havo the meani of addressing tint portion of our population, in explanation and defence of our principle, in their own language. They have been too much neglected already. The Germans are an honest, industrious peoplo frugal iu their habits, disposed to livo within their means, and ambitious of accumulating property and bettering their condition. They come to this country preQ disposed in favor of Whig measures, All Germany, at the present day, is united in a "Home Lcaguo " Zott Verein against the Manufactures of England, and in favor of tho policy of domestic indus try. To ophsc a Tariff in this country, they aro taught to renounce their most cherished sentiments in the Father land. The unscrupulous efforts of our native born" demagogues, have been too successful in prejudicing their minds against Iho objects of the Whig party, but it is not an insurmountable labor to enlighten their minds, and set them on the ground thoy would naturally wish to occupy. Propositions have been often mado tn establish a German Whig paper in this city, but Cincinnati possesses superior advantages, for the attainment of the desired object The resident German population of Cincinnati is large and rapidly increasing;, and such a piper can nbtuin a better spontaneous support, and exert a stronger influence there, than at any other point Efforts should bo made by our Whig friends to extend the circulation of the " Republican," and pioue it Uoii a permanent footing. The Germans should be urged to subscribe for it and Whigs themselves should subscribe for and circulate it gratuitously, A small amount of money laid out in that way, can do much good. It is in our power thus to gain the suport of the majority of our German citizens, and surely with thu results of our late elections before us, we cannot be insensible tn the importance of employing means so unexceptionable as tint of diffusing correct information, to turn the tide of victory in our fuvor ' The "German Republican" is published at $2 per year, weekly. It has reached its 10th number, and only wants the aid the Whigs can easily givo it to be made an elucicnt instrument in the redemp tion of the State. Frrlgn nmlhlf MngnsiMe for DrermWr.

If the extension was granted, and the fund arising from school lands withheld, tho deficiency would nave to ba supplied by a sale of Stato bonds, and he waa opposed lo making any s.icnflco on such sales. Mr. Wilford thought the bill would operate only on thoso who could not pay, and therefore would not affect the amount Ui be derived from that source. Mr. Atkinson said if the bill passed, the whole fund received from school land purchasers would fail to be received, and no other alternative would bo left tut additional taxation.

Mr. Hartley opposed Ihe instructions. He wished some more decisive action on the subject He was in favor of an immediate settlement of the currency question, wnicn no thought might vet tie effected be- fore the first of January.

If It did not the whole Business or the expiring Banks would be deranged and Ihrown into confusion 1 tho assets of the Banks would be placed in tho hands of receivers, tne consequencos ol which would be a depreciation of their paier in the hands of the people, and an entire arrest of the circulation of tho whole amount as money.

Mr. M'Clung, from Uie committee on the Peniten tiary, reported back the resolution for the appointment of a commissioner to examine into the management of the Penitentiary, and the conduct of Wm. 11. van Hook, recommending its passage. Mr. llowen was not aware that any meeting ol tho committee had been held, but u a member of it ho should differ from the majority in reference to the resolution, mere wu no question but an investigation wu necessary, but he thought it could u well be made by a committee of the Legislature u by individuals out of it It wu a new thing in legislation to appoint persons who were not members nf the General Assembly to make examinations of tho kind proposed, and he thought such a course would materially increue Uie expense of an investigation. He moved to amend tlie resolution by striking out the names of David Tod, Allen Trimble and E. . Haines, snd insert members on the part of the Senate, and three members on the part of thu House, lo constitute Uie committee. Mr. Mcrarland desired that individuals should bit appointed, Uie result of whose investigations woul.I be satisfactory. They should be competent to decidis on the propriety of admitting certain testimony, and the inducements which operated on Uie minds uf per-sons testifying. He considered that tlie committee should be made up of legal gentlemen, and that their characters should be such, that if Mr, Van Hook is found to be not guilty of committing frauds, their decision shall be final and decisive. The expenso nf the examination proposed, would not probably bu moro than $50 more than an examination by a cum-miltee of the House, but what wu tlie mere matter of $1100 or l.r0 to a final decision of the matter, both as regards the public interest and the character of tho individual implicated. Mr. Bowen thought legal genUcmcn could be found in the Legislature abundantly competent lo mako tins investigation men whose characters were abovu suspicion, and whose decision would be as satisfactory u that of any ono out uf it Mr. Chaney, (Mr. Chambers in Uie chair, was iii favor of an examination by a committee of the House. lie thought it unnecessary to extend it any farther than to an investigation of Uie charges nude against Mr. Van Hook. The previous management of tho prison he thought should be let alone. Mr. Prohssco wu in favor ol the amendment l.a wu opposed to appointing individuals out of the Legislature to make investigations. Such a course had been pursued heretofore only in one instsnce this case of tho contested election between Wright and Holmes, and in that case there were sufficient reasons for it If the examination wu to be a long an I tedious one, a committee ot the House could inaku it with less expense. A deviation from past praclico could result in no good. 1 he amendment waa supported fsrther by Messrs. Humphreys, Chaney and Bowen, and opposed by Mr. McFarland, when the amendment wu agreed to. Mr. McINulty moved to recommit the resolution to the committee on the Penitentiary, with instructions so to amend it u to provide for an examination of tlie books and accounts of the Wardens of the Penitentiary from the time of the erection of ue near prison. 1 he motion was decided out or order. Mr. Probasco wu in favor of the investigation pro posed by the gentleman from Knox.

Mr. M'Nulty reported back the resolution, in ref erence to depreciated paper money received into the Treasury, with amendments, which were agreed to, and the resolution adopted. Mr. breen ottered a resolution, calling on the Board of Public Works for a statement of the con dition of the National Road, the amount of tolls collected and disbursed during the past year, and in regaru to uie expeuiency oi reducing me tons-adopted.On motion of Mr. Byington. a resolution wu adopted fur the printing of 5,000 copiee of the Gov ernor's Inangural Address in Uie English, and 3,000 in the German language, for Uie use of the members of Uie General Assembly. On motion of Mr. King, a joint resolution was adopted fnr a meeting of tlie two Houses at 3 o'clock, on Saturday, tlie 17th insl. for Uie purpose of elect ing one r resident Judge lor the 7th Judicial Circuit Several bills were considered in committee of the whole, reported bsck, and recommitted. The House took a recess. 3 o'doc, s. M The House took up the resolution relative to an investigation into the transactions of the Board of Fund Commissioners, and the question being on agreeing to an amendment providing for Uie appointment of a committee of three members of the House to moke Uie investigation, Mr. Olds said he hoped Uie amendment would not prevail. It wu impossible for a committee of the House to make the proposed investigation, without occupying the whnle luno of the session. If an investigation wu to be made, it should be a thorough one. He knew of no transactions of the Board for any one period, that wu fully understood. There might be nothing wrong or unfair in their doings, but it waa possible Uiat every thing wu not perfectly fair, and in regard to which Uie people should be inform, ed.
